【used】Sire / Z7-5 NAT 4.365kg #2N25931159【GIB Yokohama】

Sire rose to fame as a brand releasing basses supervised by Marcus Miller.

The quality of the guitars and basses they produce is extremely high, and they are highly popular even among people other than Marcus fans.

This is their new product, the Z7-5.

As you can see, this model is based on the Musicman Stingray.

The neck has a nice, old-fashioned feel to it.

A model called the Z3 was also released, but the Z7 has additional pickups and a preamp that allows for more precise adjustments.

The body material is Swamp Ash for the NT color, and Alder for the others.
The fingerboard is Roasted Maple, Maple, or Ebony, depending on the model.

The neck material is similarly different, with Roasted Maple for the NT color and Maple for the others.

The pickups are a set of Sire Premium J+MM.
These can be freely mixed using the balancer.

The preamp has a mid-frequency section, and controls include Volume/Tone, Blender, Treble, Middle/Freq, and Bass (passive/active switch).

The Musicman Stingray originally didn't have a passive option, so many people will see this as a positive.

The finish of the fingerboard and frets is excellent.

At this price point, it's naturally of high quality, comparable to instruments in higher price ranges.

The sound is as expected, with crisp, strong highs and tight lows.

Until now, there weren't many options for this type of guitar, but I feel like a great replica has finally arrived. I recommend it.

Approximately 90% of the frets remain.

The truss rod is in good condition.

The neck is in slight high-rise condition. With the standard GIB string height (2.0mm-2.8mm at the 12th fret), there may be some buzzing from the 7th fret onwards, depending on picking strength.
There are minor scratches on the body and paint.
The electrical system is in good condition.
No obvious modifications were found.

Controls: Master Volume/Master Tone, Blender, Treble, Mid/Frequency, Bass (Push/Pull - Active/Passive)
Nut Width: 45.0mm
Bridge String Spacing: 18.0mm
Scale: 34-Inch
Year of Manufacture: Unknown
Country of Manufacture: Indonesia

This instrument is set up using D'addario EXL strings, trusted by professional musicians.
With their powerful attack and rich overtones, they truly deserve to be called the standard.
These high-quality strings maximize the instrument's performance and character, so please enjoy them as well.

These strings will be tuned by GIB craftsmen for optimal playability before delivery.
